                                                   6.16 Send In the Clones   
      
   First airing was April 23, 2001   
      
   The story starts out in modern times. Two cars meet on a foggy night and   
   flash headlights. A woman who looks a lot like Alti gets out of one car. A   
   man with a briefcase gets out of the other. The woman opens the briefcase   
   and takes out a crusted-over Chakram. She then looks a two hairs in a glass   
   jar. She says something about perfectly preserved 2000 year old hair   
   samples. She gives him money and they leave.   
      
       Skeleton Alti and  Xena start to fight in the episode 'Them Bones, Them   
   Bones'. Three people, two women and man are watching clips of the show. A   
   phone is ringing. The man answers then tells the women it's Alexis. She asks   
   if the clips are ready. He says yes. She wants a balanced selection. He   
   wants more Joxer. Alexis says any disagreements will be settled by Leah, who   
   knows a lot about psychological profiling. She asks if Dr. Polly is there.   
   He says yes. Alexis tells them to meet her in 72 hours.   
      
       The three of them enter a lab where Alexis is at a computer. They ask if   
   everything worked. Alexis shows them clones of Xena and long-haired   
   Gabrielle strapped on two tables. Everyone is happy with what they see.   
      
       Alexis says they need to use the clips to bring them to life. She says   
   the hair samples were from the Tomb of the Scrolls. She says the Xena's and   
   Gabrielle's memories and personalities are dormant. They talk about what   
   they want X&G to be downloaded with. Leah wants more X&G relationships.   
      
       Polly wants them to kick ass. The guy wants more Joxer. Alexis tells   
   Polly to prepare them. She puts electrodes on both their temples..   
      
       Alexis says to start with Polly's disk. There are flashbacks of Xena   
   fighting in 'Chakram,' 'Motherhood,' 'Heart of Darkness' and others. There   
   is no response from either of them. Leah says Xena needs a dose of   
   Gabrielle. Alexis says it's enough for the day. They don't want to over   
   stimulate them.   
      
       Polly says she ordered clothes for them from a catalog. Everyone leaves.   
   Later someone comes back in. He/she is wearing gloves. He/she touches Xena's   
   face, then unplugs the electrodes from Gabrielle. He/she puts in a disk   
   labeled Evil Xena and begins downloading into Xena scenes of Xena killing   
   Amazons. Xena twitches. There is a clip of Gabrielle on a cross and Xena   
   saying to break her legs. Xena sneers.   
      
       The next day when Leah and Alexis come in Polly has dressed X&G and Nerd   
   guy has cut Gabrielle's hair. Leah wants classic Gabby. The Nerd guy says   
   someone downloaded something different. They watch it and no one knows how   
   it happened. They are afraid Evil Xena might wake up. Alexis says they now   
   need the Gabrielle clips -- Gabrielle is telling Xena how much she needs   
   her, and Gabrielle with Eli.   
      
       They put back in Polly's disk with Gabrielle killing Romans in the   
   episode 'Ides of March.' Alexis says to show the consequences of Xena's   
   actions.   
      
        They show the clip of Xena apologizing about the death of Callisto's   
   parents. Xena wakes up and takes the electrodes off. She throws her Chakram,   
   it ricochets around but when she puts it back on its clip, it breaks.   
      
       Xena puts the pinch on Nerd guy and tells everyone to tell her what's   
   going on. Gabrielle wakes up and calls to Xena. Xena demands again to know   
   what's going on. Alexis tells her they've been cloned. Gabrielle asks if   
   Ares did it. Alexis says it was a higher power called Science. Leah says   
   they did it because they need heroes. X&G are shown clips of riots and war   
   and civil unrest.   
      
       Xena says they're hungry and want food. She is given donuts – sugar and   
   fat.   
      
       While Xena is eating a pizza and Gabrielle is drinking a soda, Polly is   
   thinking that Xena could kick Jackie Chan's, Jet Li's, and Bruce Lee's   
   asses. Nerd guy is thinking that X&G must be horny and he'll be their first   
   21st century man. Leah thinks she should show them old Ellen reruns.   
      
       While watching Xena and Gabrielle kiss when Gabrielle marries Perdicus,   
   Gabrielle looks uncomfortable, but Xena likes it. When Xena kisses Gabrielle   
   to wake her up in 'Return of the Valkyries,' Xena says it's not like she   
   remembered. Gabrielle agrees. Polly and Leah says their real memories are   
   awakening.   
      
       Xena likes the woman playing Xena, and thinks she's sexy. Gabrielle is   
   concerned that they've taken liberties with her scrolls. Xena takes   
   Gabrielle aside and wonders what they should do now. Gabrielle says that   
   they should do some good. Xena says the Greater Good thing doesn’t appeal to   
   her. She goes off somewhere.   
      
        Alexis tells Gabrielle she thinks Evil Xena has been awakened. She   
   takes Gabrielle outside where the police are waiting She tells them   
   Gabrielle broke into the lab. Gabrielle tries to explain she was cloned but   
   isn't believed. When they start to arrest her, she draws her sais, but   
   Alexis reminds her what guns can do and Gabrielle  is arrested.   
      
       The four of them are watching more Xena clips. Xena is sleeping. Nerd   
   guy asks if Joxer was really like that. Xena says mostly but she doesn't   
   remember him being that smart.   
      
       Alexis goes back inside and tells Xena that Gabrielle was taken to jail,   
   and she tell her where it is. But before Xena leaves, Alexis gives her the   
   real Chakram. Xena goes after Gabrielle.   
      
       Leah, Polly and Nerd guy want to know what's going on. As she stands in   
   front of the huge TV screen, Alexis morphs back into Alti as Alti comes up   
   on the screen. She tells them that she hid the scrolls but is upset that the   
   TV show has made Xena a hero, but now her reputation will change.   
      
       On the TV screen a woman reports that Xena has broken Gabrielle out of   
   jail and there is chaos in the streets as Xena has busted heads. Alti herds   
   the three of them out of the lab ahead of her.   
      
       In a car junkyard, Xena is wearing goggles and using a grinder to make a   
   new sword.  Gabrielle complains that Xena could have killed someone at the   
   city dungeon. Xena asks if she wanted to rot in there.   
      
       Alti drives up with the other three with her. Xena recognizes her as   
   Alti. Alti starts reminding Xena of the time before Gabrielle came along.   
   Gabrielle keeps telling her not to listen to Alti. Xena remembers being an   
   evil Valkyrie.   
      
       Alti mentions the times Gabrielle betrayed her. Xena remembers trying to   
   kill Ming Tien, and when Solan was killed, and the Gab-Drag. Xena asks why   
   Alti brought back Gabrielle, and Alti says she's a gift to Xena and pushes
